Iconic brand Chanel has announced the launch of Through Her lens: The Tribeca Chanel Women’s Filmmaker Program, a multi-faceted, three-day program designed to support emerging U.S.-based female filmmakers.
The program running from Oct 26 to Oct 28 is presented by Tribeca Enterprises and Chanel in collaboration with Pulse Films and will empower seven rising filmmakers with project support, master classes, one-on-one mentorship, and peer-to-peer sessions. The list includes Numa Perrier, Roja Gashtili and Julia Lerman, Vera Miao, Anna Martemucci, Christina Voros and Kat Coiro.
The three days will end with a pitch presentation before a jury where one filmmaker will be awarded $75,000 to make her film with the support of Pulse Films and Tribeca Digital Studios to produce the project. The jury for the inaugural year includes jurors Patricia Clarkson, Mary Harron, Mynette Louie, Rebecca Miller and Julianne Moore.
